Die Junglandwirte Lydia und Philipp Pelzer öffnen die Tore ihres Familienhofs und räumen gründlich mit alten Klischees auf. Ehrlich, humorvoll und mit viel Herzblut erzählen sie, wie wichtig Verantwortung, Tierliebe und Zusammenhalt auf dem Land sind, und geben Einblicke in die Herausforderungen der modernen Landwirtschaft: vom Treckerfahren über die Bullenmast bis hin zu bürokratischen Hürden und den Erwartungen von Politik und Verbraucher*innen. Was motiviert junge Menschen heute, Landwirt*in zu werden? Wie gelingt es, zwischen Natur, Markt und Gesellschaft zu bestehen?

Something unimaginable occurred from 1764 to 1767 in the remote highlands of south-central France. For three years, a real-life monster, or monsters, ravaged the region, slaughtering by some accounts more than 100 people, mostly women and children, and inflicting severe injuries upon many others.

After I'd got him out of harm's way, I dived back in yet again and swam out past the surf-break, out to where the other two lads were floundering. Then, one at a time, I took them back onto the rocks – all done against the raging rip and wild surf. By then an hour or so had passed. Still, severe cuts, bruises and abrasions aside, I'd successfully saved the lives of the four young people who, in all probability, would've otherwise drowned.

In the sequel to Seamus O'Rourke's popular first memoir, Standing in Gaps, this innocent Leitrim lad finally flees the nest, briefly sampling life in New York, Dublin and London – before inevitably returning to his beloved, duller than dishwater existence at home, a life which now includes alcohol, Doctor Hook and some low-budget romance. But man does not live on romance alone and Seamus needs to get to the bottom of his general uselessness, spurred on as always by his ever-the-realist father, who prophesised his mediocrity from an early age.

In Great Leaps, Colin Flahive explores China's rural-urban migration against the backdrop of his own transition from Colorado to southwest China. There he partnered with three friends to open a café that became much more than simply an outpost of Western cuisine in a far-flung corner of the world. Over the course of a decade, Salvador's Coffee House became home to more than 50 young women from mountain villages in the surrounding countryside. Most knew nothing about coffee or Western food, but they moved to the city to work at Salvador's and earn their independence.

On a cold night in January 2001, the idyllic community of Dartmouth College was shattered by the discovery that two of its most beloved professors had been hacked to death in their own home. Investigators searched helplessly for clues linking the victims to their murderer or murderers. A few weeks later, across the river, in the town of Chelsea, Vermont, police cars were spotted in front of the house of a high school senior. Soon, the town discovered the incomprehensible reality that two of Chelsea's brightest and most popular sons, were now fugitives, wanted for the murders.

Las vivencias recogidas en este tercer volumen de la serie iniciada con Entre limones y El loro en el limonero -que no sólo cosecharon un enorme éxito en España, sino que también suman más de un millón de ejemplares vendidos en Reino Unido- reflejan el particular talante de una persona con una incorregible tendencia a actuar movida por cierta visión idealista de las cosas.
